    Cookies: Peppermint Butter Wafers


    Source of Recipe


    "The Moosewood Restaurant Kitchen Garden" by David Hirsch, posted by catgurrl to recipecircus

    List of Ingredients




    * 1/2 cup unsalted butter
    * 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh peppermint leaves
    * 1/2 cup sugar
    * 1 egg, lightly beaten
    * Pinch of salt
    * 3/4 cup flour

    Recipe



    1. Cream the butter with the mint, then let stand at room temperature for 1 hour to suffuse the butter with the mint flavor.

    2. Cream the sugar into the butter mixture. Add the egg and mix until well blended. Add the salt and flour, mixing just until smooth.

    3. Lightly oil 2 baking sheets. Drop teaspoonfuls of the batter 2 inches apart on the sheets. The batter will spread and flatten as it bakes. Bake in a preheated 375¼ F oven 10 to 15 minutes, or until the wafers are light brown at the edges. Immediately remove the cookies from the baking sheets and cool on racks.

    Makes about 2 dozen cookies.
